[Emilda-devel] Status of emilda development

[Anders G. <and...@te...>]

Hi!
In progress of migrating to emilda in our little school-library...
I have written an import script for bibliomatik data (crappy, closed
source DOS app that's running now). Just wondering - when is the next
release planned, new features etc.

greetings
Anders

Hello Anders,

Emilda is currently undergoing a fairly stagnated phase. The company 
behind Emilda, Realnode Oy, is realigning its business focus which 
implies that Emilda no longer fits into the core portfolio of the company.

Emilda is however currently also being developed in cooperation with 
other parties, however not under any strict or binding release schedule. 
This means that every now and then there are new features being added to 
the SVN-repository, but there are no plans to release any stable 
releases any time soon. The code on SVN is currently in production use, 
so it IS stable, but not a release.

Hence we are looking for people from the community to actively 
participate in organizing the entire project. Realnode Oy would be 
willing to step back on its role as project coordinator, and let an 
external group be the leading force. We would of course back the project 
up to the extent possible!

Hopefully this clarifies the situation a bit. It may sound as a sad 
reading, but we at least believe that Emilda is a good project and 
should thus also survive even though Realnode Oy no longer would be as 
much actively involved.

Regards,
